What version of Copy II+ are you using?  I'm assuming you are running the
3.5 drive version... remember that the sector editor and the block editor
are two completely different things.

Apple (I think; it looked very Apple-ish) made a program called
"diskedit.system" or something similar; it did a number of things but searching
for strings was oddly omitted.

Quality Software (?) was rumored to have updated Bag of Tricks to a ProDOS
version.

Glen Bredon's ProSEL has a program called Block Warden.  This would probably
be the best to get; for $40 you get all kinds of stuff.

Beagle Brothers, as previously mentioned, made some sort of block editor.
